I finished my final(ish) draft of my WIP!! *throws confetti* *throws spaghetti*
I’m not fully satisfied with it, but I think that is at least partially because I am sick of working on it over and over. In August, I’ll brush it up and enter it into a contest. This is the first time I have ever finished the edits of something. Yay!
June 20, 2018 at 12:11 am #74365CONGRATS, @princessfoo!!! *high five*
What is your WIP about? I don’t think I know much about it.
You can pronounce it however you want.
June 20, 2018 at 4:22 pm #74369Thank you! Here is a synopsis I wrote a while ago.
Aliyah Locke has never liked the stories where the main character is suddenly thrust into another universe. Seriously, those characters act like theyβve never read a book before. But when a gift a friend gave her leads her to a strange new world, Aliyah is the first to admit she is not equipped for an adventure. She just wants to go home without dooming the inhabitants of the nation to destruction.
But when an unexpected betrayal leaves Aliyah stunned, and the only one who can save the kingdom, she has to decide just how much she is willing to fight, and how much she will sacrifice, for a world and a people that is not her own. Because the Short One wants what she has, and he is willing to do anything to get it.

@sarah-anson *high fives* *dodges thrown cake* Thank you! How did you manage to get hot chocolate from Smaug without dying? That’s impressive.
@gh24682468999 Thank you. I was a bit concerned actually because if I had to describe my book in once sentence it would go something like “girl gets transported to strange world before joining resistance against evil dictator” and that is pretty cliche. Hard to avoid stuff like that I guess.June 22, 2018 at 2:13 pm #74425@princessfoo Congrats! πThat’s exciting news! π
